A Great Victory
A Terrible Case of Scrofula
Cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla

In the winter Of 1879 was attacked with
Scrofula in one of the most aggravating FORMS
At one time had no less than thirteen large
assesses over and around my neck and throat,
continually exuding an offensive mass of
bloody matter disgusting to behold and
almost intolerable to endure. 1t is impossible
to fully describe my sufferings, as the case
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
three years of misery, having been treated by
three physicians, | was worse than ever
Finally, on the recommendation of W. j.
Huntley, druggist of Lockport, was induced
to try Hoods Sarsaparilla. And now, after
having taken twelve bottles, within the last
twelve months, the scrofulous eruptions have
entirely ceased, and the assesses have all
disappeared, except the unsightly sears, which
are daily becoming smaller by degrees. and
beautifully less l do not know what it NAV
nave done for others, but l do know that in
my ease, Hoods Sarsaparilla has proved an
effective specific indeed. As an evidence of
my gratitude l send these facts unsolicited,
and l am ready to verify the authenticity of
this cure. by personal correspondence with
any one who doubts it," CHARLES A. ROB-
ERTs, East Wilson, Y.
This statement is confirmed by W. J. Hunt
ley, druggist, of Lockport, n. Y. who calls the
cure great rictory for Hoods Sarsaparila.
